CHARLIE SHEEN GOES TO REHAB! IT'S ABOUT TIME!

Fresh off an epic bender, actor Charlie Sheen is going to rehab - and his hit sitcom is going on hiatus.

TV's highest-paid star "has voluntarily entered an undisclosed rehabilitation center," said his spokesman, Stan Rosenfield. "He is most grateful to all who have expressed their concern."

While a porn star dished about Sheen freebasing cocaine and guzzling vodka, Rosenfield said the actor "asks that his privacy be respected at this time."

His top-rated CBS show "Two and a Half Men" - which had been scheduled to resume shooting Tuesday - was placed on immediate production hiatus Friday.

"We are profoundly concerned for his health and well-being, and support his decision," said a statement from CBS.

Shortly after the rehab announcement, Sheen sent a text to gossip site RadarOnline brushing off the hubbub surrounding his partying ways.

"People don't seem to get it. . . . Guy can't have a great time and do his job also?" the website reported.

The news that the oft-rehabbed Sheen is taking yet another shot at sobriety came hours after Sheen bolted Cedars-Sinai Medical Center.

He was rushed there early Thursday after a wild party at his $8 million mansion that reportedly boasted porn stars, cocaine and booze.

One X-rated guest gave a matter-of-fact recital of her debauched night with the leading man who earns $1.8 million per episode.

Kelly Jordan, 22, described in detail for TMZ.com what was happening upon her arrival at Sheen's palatial residence - where he reportedly began partying on Tuesday.

"When I first saw him, he was just f------ wasted out of his mind," she told the website. "He just had his little green pipe, and he kept hitting it."

Sheen chugged a vodka drink - and called for a cocaine delivery once everyone in the house was smashed, Jordan told TMZ. The drugs arrived inside a Gucci satchel and were dumped on the kitchen table.

The pile of cocaine was "the size of my fist," said Jordan, who was joined at the bash by a pair of 19-year-old porn stars, including Melanie Rios.

When Sheen ended up in the hospital, his camp insisted the cause was "severe abdominal pain." One friend improbably suggested the actor aggravated a hernia - by laughing at a television show.

Initially, Sheen, 45, indicated he planned a return to the set for business as usual when the show resumed filming next week.

Instead, after a hospital visit from his parents and ex-wife Denise Richards, Sheen went into rehab - again. Dad Martin Sheen was "worried Charlie is going to kill himself," a source close to the family told RadarOnline.
